<div> </div>
<div>- Alpha code is written and compiling now. (attached)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>- I would like to start testing. However, there is an error when starting dovecot (git) :</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;"> Error: Couldn't load required plugin /usr/lib/dovecot/lib21_fts_xapian_plugin.so: dlopen() failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/lib21_fts_xapian_plugin.so: undefined symbol: _Z30fts_backend_default_can_lookupP11fts_backendPK15mail_search_arg</span></div>

<div><strong>Pending questions</strong></div>
<div> </div>
<div>1 - WHat does represent "subargs" in mail_search_args</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2 - for rescan : who is responsible for passing again the new email ? Is</div>
<div>the Dovecot core sending again all the emails to index ? or the fts</div>
<div>shall somehow access the mailbox and read all emails ? Wouldn't just be</div>
<div>saying "delete all index and get_last_uid is now 0" the easy way ? or</div>
<div>the fts must process all emails (and block the current thread as a</div>
<div>mailbx maybe quite large)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3 - for get_last_uid : this uncertainity is very unclear. "If there is a</div>
<div>gap, then indexer first indexes all the missing" -> this mean at a</div>
<div>certain point, indexer maybe rebuilding a previous email, so *last* uid</div>
<div>is something different than max. And how indexer does know whther there</div>
<div>is a gap wihtout callong the fts backend (whch it does not as there are</div>
<div>no function for that) ?</div>
<div> </div>
